There have been claims that there are AZs in other cities, but one of the reported cities is Richmond, VA. Not for lack of trying the last couple of days, but there is no AZ here in Richmond at this point. Can anyone confirm AZs anywhere other than Seattle right now?

The scammers are already at it using the promise of stimulus checks to scam people. Here's some info for anybody who needs it to avoid getting scammed: ~HOW GETTING YOUR STIMULUS CHECK WILL WORK~ THE IRS WILL NOT CALL YOU THE IRS WILL NOT EMAIL YOU THE IRS WILL NOT TEXT YOU The amount of your check ...

Virginia is yet another state to fully shut schools down for the next two weeks.

The ones shutting down will still be a distribution point for meals, though. This is a real problem with the schools shutting down.

Anyone else feeling overwhelmed & under-prepped?

Still wondering, too: how did these last four days cause you to lose 6 years towards retirement?

Investments have taken a major hit due to economic uncertainty regarding a global pandemic. It's all in the numbers.

When they are 16 or older, they can take courses offered by the community. Around here, once a year, a group comes through and offers free CPR and FA classes for free. There ...

I wouldn't grind hard things like nuts or corn in a plastic one (for fear of deforming the screw), but it should work for meats and cheese. Seems like the low scores were for the suction cup that holds it onto the counter... Did you have any trouble with that? No, I found that it held very well. I ...

I've had several manual and electric meat grinders and have been generally unhappy with any of them. My last frustrating gizmo was packed away due to a recent move, so I decided to find a cheap replacement rather than spend hours trying to figure out what box I put something that barely works anyway...

We've mentioned menstrual cups here before and I know some of us use them and some of us find them clumsy and difficult to use. Generally, you have to pinch the body of a menstrual cup to release any suction on the vaginal wall before pulling it out, but that can be challenging, particularly for tho...

My only internet at home in Whatcom County is through mobile devices and I've been quite happy with it for a few years. I might feel different if I was into video games. For research, email, and Netflix, Sprint has held up just fine for me. What does bug me is sometimes the tablet is not user frien...

The father of the man who officials say gunned down worshipers Sunday at a rural Texas church has broken his silence.

Watch the body armor, too. Hubby bought a high level body armor for police work many years ago. After a couple years of wear, a seam came open and he discovered the armor inside was several levels under what he had paid for.

Pneumonic and Septicemic plague are particularly concerning as they can be transmitted via inhaling airborne droplets (like when an infected person sneezes).

I am most saddened for the people who went to bed thinking they were probably safe and were overtaken in the night. One family tried to escape, but were all injured save for one boy who didn't make it. The news article I read said the family were all in poor condition and hadn't even been told yet ...
